What is Female Infertility, and Who is Eligible for Treatment?

Female infertility is a condition where a woman experiences difficulty conceiving despite regular, unprotected intercourse. This can result from various factors, such as hormonal imbalances, ovulation disorders, fallopian tube blockages, or uterine conditions. Infertility treatment is typically recommended for women who have been trying to conceive for a year or more without success, or six months for women over the age of 35.

Types of Female Infertility

Ovulatory Disorders
Ovulatory disorders are one of the most common causes of female infertility, affecting the regular release of eggs from the ovaries. These issues can manifest as irregular menstrual cycles, infrequent ovulation, or the complete absence of ovulation (anovulation). Conditions such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), hormonal imbalances, and thyroid disorders often contribute to ovulatory problems, making conception difficult. Treatments typically include medications that stimulate ovulation, lifestyle changes, or addressing underlying hormonal issues.
Tubal Infertility
Tubal infertility occurs when blockages or damage in the fallopian tubes prevent the egg and sperm from meeting. Common causes include pelvic inflammatory disease, past surgeries, or endometriosis, which can create scar tissue that obstructs the tubes. This type of infertility is challenging since the fallopian tubes play a critical role in natural fertilization. Depending on the severity, treatment options may include laparoscopic surgery to clear the blockage or assisted reproductive techniques such as IVF, where fertilization occurs outside the body.
Uterine and Cervical Issues
Structural abnormalities or other issues within the uterus or cervix can also contribute to infertility. Uterine abnormalities, such as fibroids, polyps, or congenital malformations, can interfere with embryo implantation or cause recurrent miscarriages. Cervical issues, including hostile cervical mucus, can prevent sperm from reaching the egg. Treatments for uterine and cervical infertility often involve surgical correction, hormonal treatments, or assisted reproductive technologies to bypass these barriers and improve the chances of a successful pregnancy

Common Symptoms of Female Infertility

Irregular menstrual cycles
Absent or missed periods
Underlying conditions such as PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) or endometriosis
Difficulty conceiving after regular, unprotected intercourse

Many women may not notice these symptoms until they start trying to conceive, making early consultation beneficial.

What Female Infertility Treatments Are Available in Turkey?

Turkey offers a range of effective treatments for female infertility, combining advanced technology with experienced specialists. The available treatments depend on the underlying cause of infertility and may include:

Medications are used to stimulate ovulation in women with ovulatory disorders.

This procedure involves placing sperm directly into the uterus to increase the chances of fertilization.

Eggs are retrieved and fertilized outside the body, then implanted in the uterus, ideal for various infertility issues.

Laparoscopy or hysteroscopy may be used to remove blockages or treat conditions like endometriosis.

Success Rates for Infertility Treatments in Turkey

Success rates for infertility treatments in Turkey vary based on several factors, including the specific treatment type, the patient’s age, and individual health conditions. Advanced technologies and personalized treatment plans offered in Turkey have contributed to the high success rates seen in procedures like In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and Intrauterine Insemination (IUI).

IVF success rates in Turkey are particularly high, especially for women under 35, who experience success rates ranging from 40% to 60%. For women over 35, success rates may decrease, but advanced techniques such as genetic screening and embryo selection can improve outcomes.
IUI, often recommended for younger patients or those with unexplained infertility, has success rates of around 10-20% per cycle. The success of IUI is largely influenced by factors such as the partner’s sperm quality and the timing of ovulation.
Younger patients with no underlying health issues generally experience higher success rates across treatments. For patients over 40 or those with specific health conditions like PCOS or endometriosis, specialized care and tailored treatment strategies in Turkey can enhance the likelihood of a successful outcome.

Turkey’s combination of skilled specialists, modern facilities, and affordable treatment options contributes to strong success rates, making it a preferred choice for international patients seeking infertility treatment.
